About the Author

Welcome to The Nomad Lens.

My name is JT Peterson. I was born in Georgia (not the formerly Soviet one), raised in Virginia (not the western one), and currently a resident of Arizona (the…only one).

I’ve been at creative writing for over ten years–very nearly twelve, actually. Inspired by a good friend of mine and how he’d miraculously breathed life into a bunch of names, descriptions, and characteristics, I decided I wanted to do pull off a similar miracle. Just a few years later, I decided to stop looking at it as a hobby and started taking my writing more seriously. Apart from my personal fiction, I’ve been heavily involved in the participation and creation of online, text-based RPGs for six years–almost all of them have been original creations.

Some odd facts: I grew up on Star Wars and Indiana Jones. I also grew up during a time when Saturday morning cartoons were worth braving the early morning hours. I’m presently working through Beachbody’s P90X2 series. I also enjoy traveling, though I don’t see much of that these days.

Currently, I’m a senior at the University of Arizona studying Journalism, minoring in Creative Writing.
